Whoa! this is gonna be a long one. 66 chapters. But, let's see how it goes. We can always move around.
No matter how long or loud or often you pray,
I’ll not be listening.
And do you know why? Because you’ve been tearing
people to pieces, and your hands are bloody.
Go home and wash up.
Clean up your act.
I don't normally enjoy reading this type of poetic-rant, but I did like this one. It seems that God is fed up with his people. I can see him saying the same thing now, when looking at our society......when looking at me.
I copied out the above verses. We've both read this and wrote about it in the past. But, its a reminder that I need to stay focussed on. Unless I'm living a Godly life, he isn't even interested in hearing my prayers. That's a little scary. I know all the stuff/baggage I'm draggin around constantly. I need to keep putting all that stuff at his feet, and walking in his footsteps.
have a great week.
I agree let's go for a while and see where this takes us.
ReplyDeleteYou nailed this one...
v13 “Quit your worship charades.
I can’t stand your trivial religious games:
Monthly conferences, weekly Sabbaths, special meetings—
Sometimes I wonder if I have a true faith or if I live a charade? I tell someone they will be in my prayers, then quickly forget. I need to be in relationhsip with God consistently, I want to be. Its up to me, no excuses.
